STRENGHTS WEAKNESSESS
  • acceptable size for position which comes with very good length (+6’7 wingspan)
  • agile, well balanced and coordinated
  • beautiful touch on floaters. Can really make high arching lay up over big players helping on defense
  • extremely composed for his age group. Not affraid of taking the clutch shot
  • reliable shooter with range after catch and stop & up
  • very good passer. Excels in drive and kick. Can dish in traffic in pick and roll situations
  • good offensive pace setter. Can speed up the tempo in transition and use full clock when neccesary 
  • despite experience and being even keeled he doesn’t have vocal leadership qualities
  • overall good but not great athlete
  • doesn’t create that much shoots off the dribble 
OUTLOOK
Theo has basketball in his blood coming from medium level players and coaches background. He is never overwhelmed with the prestige of competition he participates in and displays phenomenal experience level for his age group as he joined INSEP program earlier than usual and already took part in numerous international events. Before 2016/2017 season he transfered to ASVEL as expected where he can recieve guidance from the people of his idol (Tony Parker) campus. Very serious NBA prospects but to find himself there he probably needs to take his athletic, ball handling and defensive abilities to the next level.
